Those who wish to contribute basic school supplies (paper, pens, pencils, etc.) can drop them off between 5 p.m. and 8 p.m. Entertainment from DISD bands and cheerleaders will also be on hand to mark the occasion. Additionally, there will also be prize giveaways at the district's administration building.

At 5:30 p.m. at the administration building, Reliant Energy will present a $5,000 check to the district for the purchase of additional school supplies to be distributed among the drive site locations.
